OkCupid’s offline status/Incognito Mode feature lets you appear offline to friends, or appear online to friends you want to chat with. To activate offline status login into your OkCupid account and click on the settings. Then click the gear icon to expand Options and select Appear Offline.
OkCupid offline is the same as Incognito mode which disables the chat from showing that the user is online and removes the time stamp that displays when the user was last logged in. There is also an “Unseen Message” feature that enables the user to still send messages and get replies without the recipient seeing that they have been read on some social media apps.
OkCupid offline helps when you don’t want or don’t have time to engage with friends. If you want to log into OkCupid without your friends knowing you’re online, you can easily turn off your “active status” so you appear offline
You can turn off your active status on the OkCupid website, and OkCupid mobile app. When your active status is turned off, you will appear offline even when you’re online.

Can my friends see my active status if I ignore them on OkCupid? There is no connection between ignoring the message and the online or offline status of OkCupid. So, if you ignore someone on the messenger they can still see you as active if you are active.
How Can You Tell if Someone is Offline on OkCupid
You can see someone is active on OkCupid by checking the green dot on their profile, next to which “recently active” is written – it means they’ve been active in the last 24 hours; which does not mean that they’re online at the moment.
You can also tell if someone is on OkCupid by entering their name in the search bar in the app, and clicking on them. One clear sign that he’s still using OkCupid is if he’s updated his profile photo and information.
Another way to find out if someone is using OkCupid is to open OkCupid on your phone– you won’t need to log in. Enter either the person’s profile ID into the search section. There should then be a confirmation of whether this is an existing account on their records or not.
